I do not like pumpkin pie, but my hubby and kids just love it. My hubby loves it so much he actually makes the pumpkin pie. He even makes it quite frequently throughout the year. He's a great pumpkin pie maker because he even makes his crust from scratch.
Of course the only pumpkin pie recipe used in our house is my grandmother's. Enjoy!
Pie Crust
2 C sifted flour
1 tsp salt
10 2/3 tbs crisco and add a little extra
7 tbs ice water
Put all the ingredients together except water.
Cut the crisco into the flour to make small pieces.
Add the water.
Mix.
At the end you will have to use your hands to get the flour all mixed together.
Divide in half and roll out of a floured board.
You should have enough for two pie crusts.
`For pumpkin pie do not cook the pie crust until the pumpkin ingredients are put in.
The Pumpkin Pie
2 C pumpkin
2 tsp melted butter
1/2 tsp salt
1 C sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/2 tsp mace
1/2 tsp ginger
1 C milk
1/2 C arnation milk
2 eggs
Combine salt and spices with sugar and add pumpkin.
Add all other ingredients.
Pour into unbaked pie shell.
Bake 15 minutes at 425 degrees.
Then lower oven to 350 degrees and bake about 35 minutes or until knife inserted comes out clean.
